To answer my own question, by the trial-and-error method, it seems that the 
current default needs to be taken out from the conf file.

Sorry, I had a question on the xserver_arguments in the slim.conf file.

The old (1.3.6) file had xserver_arguments commented out, but the new (1.4.0) 
file replaces it with

xserver_arguments   -nolisten tcp -deferglyphs 16

The default zserver is still the same:

default_xserver     /usr/bin/X

Should the xserver_arguments be modified/removed in a patch? Or left as is?

Thanks!

Per the guidelines:

    Where the upstream project publishes OpenPGP signatures
    of their releases, Fedora packages SHOULD verify that
    signature as part of the RPM build process.

If upstream doesn't provide a signature for their releases,
then there isn't anything to verify.

The guideline is also a SHOULD not a MUST, so it's not a
blocker to lack signature verification (though I'd argue it
should be a very strong SHOULD, if not a MUST. ;)

It might be worth asking the upstream maintainer if they
would consider signing the release tarballs.

I have to guess that you're looking to use slim-fork, rather
than the original slim?  The latter hasn't seen any changes
since 2013¹, while the former has been updated recently to
1.4.0² (as far as I can tell with some quick searching).
